Jojo Moyes recommends
The Burnout (2023)
Sophie Kinsella
"I devoured The Burnout in one greedy gulp. It's funny, sad, relatable, and brilliantly done. Sophie Kinsella is the queen of romantic comedy."
Between Us (2023)
Mhairi McFarlane
"Everything you want from a rom com and satisfyingly knotty with proper, recognisable characters. She just gets better and better."
Us Three (2020)
Ruth Jones
"Ruth Jones is excellent on human nature and why we make the mistakes we do. I felt for every character. Unputdownable."
